aspire rear bar value

[geoacuraisuzu]

i was just talking to a parts yard and for an aspire rear bar and gas tank they want $150 plus sales tax (car is in mass) what are these parts actually worth would i be over paying or does that sound about correct?

Around here (if you can find one) $150 is the going price for just the axle. Other places in the country (where the rust hasn't eaten the cars) the axle can be had for much less.

Make sure that the gas tank is from a 2 door. 4 door tanks won't fit.

thats good to know and yes my festiva and the aspire are both 2 door lol

and what about the rio front brake swap? value of that?

$100 is what I spent for the Rio setup (struts, strut mounts, knuckles, rotors and calipers).

You gotta haggle, they might say they won't go lower, but how many more people in your area are going to be needing an aspire axle this week..or next... if you don't buy it they'll probably sit on it for years unless they crush it for next to nothing profit.
